Do well-intentioned conversations about homework, sleep, or screen time often turn into arguments and power struggles?

Are you concerned about your child's lack of motivation but afraid of how they'll react if you bring it up?

Do you struggle to set limits that don't come across as controlling or bossy?

From my first conversation with William Stixrud and Ned Johnson, I knew I had met kindred spirits. Like me, they believe that to be effective, we must parent from a foundation of trust and connection if we want to guide our children toward growing into confident, compassionate adults.

In our 90 minute session, you'll learn ideas that will help you make radical shifts in your relationship with your children.

More importantly, you'll be offered tips on how to engage in non-confrontational dialogue around touchy issues so that you can maintain connection while offering your kids the guidance they need.

I hope you'll take advantage of this special session!
